That seems low considering he just fought Cotto/Canelo back to back. There isn't much money to be made in boxing.
No suprise He was more or less a club fighter up until he fought Cotto,Delvin Rodriguez was the only name on his record.Trout was one of those world champions that nobody gave a toss about and still is to an extent,his fights are a cure for insomnia.
unless you're at the top, i heard it's hard to make money as a pro boxer in other news, klitschko will get 17m for fighting povetkin
Thats alot of money. He can keep the house he already has and raise his children pretty well given he keeps bringing in decent purses and fights 3-4 times a year.
LOL. You act like he's been making big money for years. He hasn't. I bet his last 2 pay days were the biggest of his career.
http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-boxers/austin-trout-net-worth/ This was for 2012 and doesn't include his Canelo match, but I imagine it won't be much higher. That blows man. So I've been thinking about this, but if I had to bone and procreate with a chick based on upping my kids natural boxing ability (chin), I might not do it afterall. Risk to reward ratio is to high. NBA NFL here I come. Only 5'9+ chicks need apply
$500,000 is alot of money what the **** is wrong with you. There are millions who would die to have that net worth.
Damn it says michael spinks has only 100 grad left? http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-athletes/richest-boxers/michael-spinks-net-worth/ I tought he was one of the smart boxers!
You guys are taking this too personally and need to read my entire ****ing post. For $500,00k and a 50% of chance of Alzheimers, and late life problems? Compard to a friend of mine who played backup quarterback for the NFL 500k salary, benefits , reitrement a year? That's insane. IT's peanuts. Also that NFL player doesn't have a cutman, a trainer, a crew to pay for, hotel expenses. That all comes with the package
most people will never have that kind of net worth. also, he just made himself a name. he is new on the top. if he is wise with his spending he will be able to stack up a few million by the time his career is over.
$500k?! And he fought Canelo. Maybe he's not with Al Haymon. Danny Garcia earned $1.25m for the Zab Judah fight. It explains why boxing isn't getting as many athletes as bbefore. High risk, low reward.
Your a kid. He has to pay tax. 500,000 is alot. Only a handfull of boxers earn over a million per fight.
